PERFECTION IS ACHIEVED NOT WHEN THERE IS NOTHING MORE TO ADD, BUT WHEN THERE IS NOTHING LEFT TO TAKE AWAY.

Biography

At a young age while living in Chile, John was classically trained under the tutelage of master portrait artist Sergio Montero.

Over the years, he has developed his own unique style of painting characterized by hard contrasting brush strokes, vibrant color palettes, and careful use of soft and hard edges to maximize volume and connection with the background.
